Reposting Costs and Revenues Manually
You can repost primary costs manually using transaction-based reposting. The original cost element is always retained. This function is intended mainly to adjust posting errors.
You should always adjust posting errors in the application component where they occurred. This ensures that external and internal accounting are always reconciled. You can only adjust posting errors involving one cost accounting object (a cost center or internal order, for example) using a transaction-based reposting in Controlling (CO).
To repost collective postings from one cost center to other cost centers at period end, you can use periodic repostings (see: Periodic Repostings).
Note
In Activity-Based Costing, you can only repost costs.
Note
You can only post revenues as statistical items to cost centers. These revenues cannot be included in periodic allocations.
Example
For the cost element External services
, 10,000 USD was mistakenly assigned to cost center 4210 instead of 4220. In transaction-based reposting you can repost the full amount to the correct cost center using the same cost element. This transaction affects only CO, since the costs are debited to cost center 4220 and credited to cost center 4210 under the same cost element.
Note
If you are working with transfer prices (parallel value flows), you cannot repost costs or revenues for parallel valuations. You need to use the function for reposting line items (see: Reposting Line Items).
